8x-8+3ax=5ax-2asolve for a

Mathematics
1 answer:
Kisachek [45]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

a=4

Step-by-step explanation:

8x-8+3ax=5ax-2a

Get all the terms with a on the right side

Subtract 3ax from each side

8x-8+3ax-3ax=5ax-3ax-2a

8x-8 = 2ax -2a

Factor out an 8 on the left and 2a on the right

8(x-1)  = 2a*(x-1)

Divide by (x-1) on both sides

8(x-1)/(x-1)  = 2a*(x-1)/(x-1)

8 = 2a

Divide by 2

8/2 =2a/2

4 =a

A regular polygon has 10 sides. What is the measure of each interior angle of the polygon?
zysi [14]

Answer:

144 = each interior angle

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the interior angles of a regular polygon is

(n – 2)180

If it is regular with n sides, divide by n to find each interior angle

(n – 2)180

------------------- = each interior angle

n

We know that there are 10 sides so n = 10

(10 – 2)180

------------------- = each interior angle

10

(8)180

------------------- = each interior angle

10

144 = each interior angle
